This book explores a wide array of uses of plametto, a small palm which grows in Southern USA. The authors give 'full instructions for basketry including samples of popular braids that have been developed and passed on from generation to generation. Instructions are clear and accurate, and samples and finished pieces are shown with drawings and photographs of the authors' creations. The combination of drawings, photgraphs and thorough instruction make for the perfect how-to resource for plametto basketry, and are adaptable to the use of other fibres including straw, ruch and grass.'
